Appendix and Cysts- not GallBladder!

 So Kelsey went in for surgery finally after 3 days in the hospital.  The doc went in with the camera looking for problems with the gallbladder and he actually found some blood that he wasn't sure where it had come from.  He later found that it had come from a cyst that had bust in her ovary.  The burst from the cyst was what caused all that pain Friday night when she woke up.   Kelsey has cysts in her ovaries now too!  We didn't know this til now.  Great...mom's never going to get any grandkids!  JK.  Anyways, so they cleaned up that mess and then found that she had a lump on her appendix that looked suspicious so he decided to take her appendix out as well.  He is then sending it to the pathologist to get the growth checked out to see if it's cancerous or not.  She is home now and is in major pain.  Here's her battle wounds!  I love you Kels! Feel better soon!Ouch!

Dude!!! Kelsey has some serious hitch hiker thumb! HA! Poor thing! She's so tiny and fragile. Even though it's unfortunate news it's a good thing they were able to find these problems with her body and fix them. Hope she feels better soon!
